Every year scientists arrive on Ross Island, Antarctica to study Adélie penguins. I was lucky enough to spend the last two summers at Cape Crozier on Ross Island, one of the largest Adelie Penguin colonies in the world.

After these 3 Adelie penguins sprinted across the sea ice towards Scott Base, I set up a timelapse for a couple of hours to watch them in the hope they would be entertaining or at least run away again, but all they did was sleep! Most boring timelapse ever - but it has penguins in :)
